Name poem part 1

Hi, My Name Is

My name is Kaila.
Yesterday I was Sunday.
Today my name is Stuck.
Tomorrow I am
Independent.
Secretly my name is possible.
Because I can make anything
Happen.
Once was wide eyed little girl
With big hopes and dreams.

Backyard (field photo)

I look out my back yard and think how lucky I am that everything has turned out the way I had hoped it would. I have the house of my dreams, the perfect family and everything anyone could ever want. I love sitting on my back porch, on the swing looking out into the field. Its such a nice view. The kind of place I had dreamed about living in. The country is so peaceful. Ever sence I was a little girl I wanted to live in the country. To be able to wake up everyday and not hear the sound of the noice cars and people outside, no sirens, or loud neighbours. Just the charming sounds of the birds singing, and the sweet smell of the country air. I feel so happy and free. Im so lucky to have everything I want and all I need.

Train Ride

I get onto the train, everyone around me looks sad and dull. I wonder just for a secind if this is really the right choice. Then I remember why I left. I couldnt take it any more. The lack of personal space, the rules the always feeling guilty for doing things that I want to do. I remember how I first felt so excited when I desided to get out. A sence of rebelling. Getting on the train made me second guess myself, am I making the right decision. Will this effect my relationship with him? I don't him to be mad, or think im doing this all because of him. I need to do whats good for me, I want to be close still but I need to be happy and on my own. Free to do what I want and make my own decisions. He will understand one day. Every baby bird has to learn how to fly somtime. When I sit down on the train I laugh because he never thought I would be able to do it. "Maybe if you get three more jobs," he would say. But here I am. The train starts to move. Its gonna be hard at first and its dark and gloomy now but I can see the sun breaking through the clouds up ahead. I know this is the right decision.

Place I love

Typically, the place I love most is my room. I do not love it all the time though. I love it most when it is clean and organized. When I can walk in it and it just feels open and nice. I love my room in the summer, partucurally in the afternoon, around 4. I open all the windows and lay in my perfectly made bed. The best part is when no one is home and I can lay there and listen to the outside. Its not too hot and its not too cold. I stretch out over my soft blanket and relax. It is by far the best place to take a nap, when the conditions are right.

My Morning

I wake up to my first alarm, hit snooze for 15 minutes. When the second one goes off I unfortunitly have to get up. My slippers are waiting for me as I step out of bed. I grab my makeup case and head for the bathroom. I brush my teeth with my eyes closed slowly opening them until I am used to the light. The I get stared on my makeup. About five to ten minutes later I do my hair. Depending on the mood Im in, the day of the week, and what im going to be doing later on depends on how much time and effort I spend on my hair and makeup. On a typical school day, I throw my hair up and touch up yesterdays makeup. Then I get dressed and go start my car. When I return from outside, I make a bowl of cherios and log onto facebook. After im down with my breakfast I brush my teeth again and it is time to leave for school. I yell at my sister "Its time to go!" and head for my car.

My Comments

I agree with Jillibird. I think you are a very happy person who is always smiling, but in this poem you go with two diffrent sides, the positive and negative. It's real becuase everyone has their ups and downs.



I really like your poem Jay. Because I know you I can see all these things and how they actually relate to you. I don't feel like it's just fancy writing, you thought about yourself and put it into a poem:)

Everything

I am a soft purple lilac
Swaying happily
In the cool summer breeze.
I am free
Free as the spring
Wind picking up before a storm.
I am the cool,
Crisp creek
Running slowly but surely
With the ever
Changing autumn leaves
Landing in my path.
I am the harsh snow fall
In the middle of January
That shines and sparkles in the sunlight.
I am the sweet taste of
Raspberries with
The chance of being sour.
I am the real sound of
An acoustic guitar
And the glam up noise of an electric.
White, black and grey
I am.
Everything.

Phillis Levin

Under a cherry treeI found a robin’s egg,broken, but not shattered.
I had been thinking of you,and was kneeling in the grassamong fallen blossoms
when I saw it: a blue scrap,a delicate toy, as lightas confetti
It didn’t seem real,but nature will do such thingsfrom time to time.
I looked inside:it was glistening, hollow,a perfect shell
except for the missing crown,which made it possibleto look inside.
What had been thereis gone nowand lives in my heart
where, periodically,it opens up its wings,tearing me apart.


I picked this peom because it was called end of April and my birthday is in April so it's my favorite month. I like the poem after I read it because it had a deeper meaning that just a peom about nature.

My life right now, lets see... I live with my dad, sister and our little dog Caeser. My dad's name is Mike and my sister's name is Haile. We live in a small house in town. Living in town has it's ups and downs, but over all I'm happy with the location of where I live. Unlike most people who grew up in Marine City, I enjoy it (This doesn't mean I never want to leave.) Right now my life revolves around money. We are by no means wealthy, and with the economy the way it is now, things are pretty crappy. But we do get by and I always find a way to get the things I want. For example I work at Won Ton in Marine City, and I picked up a couple of extra days to make paying for the Bahama spring break trip easier. My dad didn't have a problem with me going as long as I paid for everything myself. Lately it seems that the cause of me being stressed out is becasue of money, but I should't complain becasue there are people out there who have it worse than I do. During the week I wake up every morning and go to school, then I go to work, then go and work out at Viking Fitness. On weekends I like to hang out with friends, relax and have fun. I think I do have a little more responsibilty than most kids my age, but over all Im just a typical 17 year old.
